At The York Dental Suite, we can help patients with missing teeth find their smile again with dentures.

Dentures are a very popular way of replacing missing teeth, or teeth that are in need of extraction.

York dental

Otherwise known as ‘false teeth,’ these prosthetic teeth can replace just one, several, or all your teeth, depending on your needs.

What are dentures made of?

Dentures are usually made from a variety of materials, including acrylic, cobalt, and chrome. The prosthetic teeth are designed to look as much like natural teeth as possible, and the base is designed to sit over the gums or roof of the mouth.

Why do I need dentures?

At The York Dental Suite, we recommend replacing missing teeth wherever possible. Leaving gaps in your smile can lead to further oral health problems, not to mention reduce your smile confidence and leave you feeling self-conscious when you smile. It can also contribute to difficulty eating and speaking, which can be hard to live with. Dentures can help address these problems in a cost-effective way.

By combining the appropriate denture materials with good preventive dentistry practices, individuals can achieve a natural-looking smile, improved oral health, and long-lasting comfort with their dentures.

Are there alternative treatments available?

There are several alternative treatments available when it comes to replacing missing teeth. Dental bridges and implants are both possibilities, and we’ll be sure to talk you through all your options at a consultation with one of our team members here at The York Dental Suite.

Treatments

1. Full Dentures

If you’ve lost all your teeth in your upper or lower jaw (or both), full dentures are a reliable solution.
These are removable appliances that replace your teeth and gums.

  • Full/Full Dentures: A complete set for both upper and lower jaws.
  • Single Full Denture: Just one denture, either upper or lower.

2. Acrylic Partial Dentures (single)

If you still have some natural teeth, a partial denture may be right for you. This type of denture fills in the gaps where teeth are missing and helps maintain your bite and facial structure.

  • Made from durable, high impact acrylic (a type of plastic).
  • Easy to adjust and repair.

3. Skeletal Frame Partial Dentures (Cobalt Chrome/CoCr)

These partial dentures are made with a lightweight, strong metal framework that supports the replacement teeth.

  • Stronger and thinner than acrylic.
  • More comfortable for long-term wear.
  • Clips securely to your natural teeth for extra stability.

These are a popular choice for patients looking for durability and a more precise fit.

4. Flexible (Valplast) Partial Denture (single)

Valplast dentures are made from a flexible, nylon-based material that gently hugs your gums.

  • Lightweight and comfortable with no metal clasps.
  • Blend in naturally with your gums.
  • A great choice for patients who want a smaller design, more aesthetic option. This type of denture choice is not suitable for every patient, anatomical restrictions apply.

These are especially useful if you’re sensitive to metal or want a more discreet solution.

Additional Customization Options

We offer a variety of add-on features to enhance the fit, function, and appearance of your dentures, allowing you to tailor your prosthesis to your exact preferences. These include tooth coloured clasps, clear claps and gum coloured claps.

1. Staining & Characterisation of Denture Teeth and gums

For patients who want their dentures to look as natural as possible, staining and characterisation is a great option. This process involves adding natural staining to the teeth to mimic the slight discoloration that occurs in natural teeth over time.

For patients with high smile lines, we offer characterisation of the denture “gums” to blend in with your natural gums tone.

  • Adds a more authentic appearance to your dentures.
  • Perfect for partial dentures to match the natural staining of surrounding teeth.
  • Customizable to create the most realistic look for your smile

***Upgrades on the selection of denture teeth is possible.

2. Why Our Dentures Are Different

At our practice, we don’t simply offer “ranges” of dentures like many other dental clinics. Instead, we provide premium-quality dentures tailored specifically to your needs. Each denture is carefully crafted by a skilled Clinical Dental Technician (CDT), who oversees both the clinical and technical aspects of the entire process. This ensures a precise, high-quality result every time, as the CDT brings expertise and attention to detail that is crucial for achieving the best fit, function, and aesthetics.

We’ve carefully selected multi-layered teeth—known for their superior natural appearance and durability—to complement an Ivobase base material. This combination offers a denture that not only looks and feels natural but also provides long-term comfort and strength. The choice of these high-quality materials ensures that your denture will function well, retain its aesthetic appeal, and offer durability.

3. Ivobase Denture Material: The Gold Standard

One of the key reasons our dentures stand out is the use of Ivobase, a high-quality material used in both our acrylic and chrome dentures. Ivobase sets a new standard in denture technology with its superior qualities, and here’s why it’s the foundation of our denture offerings

4. Bio-Compatibility

Ivobase is designed to be highly bio-compatible, which means it’s gentle on your gums and oral tissues. This significantly reduces the risk of irritation, allergic reactions, or discomfort often associated with lower-quality materials. Ivobase helps ensure your dentures feel comfortable from day one and remain gentle to your soft tissues over time.

5. Reduced Chemical Monomers

Unlike traditional acrylic materials, Ivobase contains reduced levels of harmful chemical monomers, making it a safer option for long-term wear. This reduction in potentially irritating chemicals means your dentures are less likely to cause sensitivity or discomfort, providing a more pleasant experience for those with sensitive mouths.

6. Improved Fit and Stability

One of the standout features of Ivobase is its superior fit. The material’s stability and minimal shrinkage mean that your dentures will maintain their precision over time. This results in a more comfortable fit with fewer adjustments needed.

More Advantages of Ivobase Denture Material

1. Enhanced Aesthetic Appeal

Ivobase not only functions well—it looks great too. It offers excellent color stability, meaning your dentures will resist fading and staining, maintaining a fresh, lifelike appearance longer than standard materials. With Ivobase, you get a natural look that stays vibrant over time.

2. Durability and Strength

Ivobase is exceptionally durable. Whether you’re wearing acrylic or chrome dentures, Ivobase ensures that your dentures can withstand the everyday pressures of chewing and biting without compromising on strength or function. This makes Ivobase an ideal material for both partial and full dentures that need to endure long-term use.

3. Reduced Odor and Plaque Build-Up

Because Ivobase has a smooth surface, it resists plaque and odor build-up. This helps your dentures stay cleaner and more hygienic over time, requiring less maintenance and reducing the risk of unpleasant odors—an issue often faced with lower-quality materials.

4. Comfort and Precision

Ivobase is engineered to deliver precision fitting for a secure and comfortable feel. The material’s accuracy means your denture will fit snugly, reducing the chance of slippage or discomfort while eating or speaking.

5. Lower Heat Sensitivity

Another benefit of Ivobase is its low thermal conductivity, which means it is less sensitive to temperature changes. Whether you’re enjoying hot coffee or cold drinks, your dentures made with Ivobase will provide you with greater comfort as they are less likely to cause discomfort from extreme temperatures.

6. Lightweight Yet Strong

Despite its remarkable strength, Ivobase is lightweight, making it easy to wear for long periods without feeling weighed down. This balance of strength and lightness ensures your dentures won’t feel bulky, providing you with a more comfortable, natural experience.

7. Superior Retention with Chrome Dentures

For chrome dentures, Ivobase contributes to better retention and stability. This is especially true for partial dentures where Ivobase enhances the fit, reducing the need for bulky clasps or adhesives. You’ll enjoy a more discreet and secure fit, giving you the confidence to wear your dentures without concern.

Why This Matters to You

By using Ivobase as the base material for all of our acrylic and chrome dentures, we’re ensuring that your dentures not only look great but also feel great and perform exceptionally well over time. Ivobase’s bio-compatibility, durability, and improved fit are all designed to make your denture experience as comfortable and natural as possible.
